Making a column not respond to data limiting

The default behavior when adding a new column to a graphical table is that it uses the same data limiting, for example filtering, as the rest of the graphical table. You can, however, add a specific data limiting that only applies to one column.

About this task

See Adding data limitations for a visualization and Limiting the data in a visualization using filterings for more general information about limiting data in a visualization.
Note: What is described here also applies to sparklines in the Text area.

Procedure

  1. In the visualization properties panel, below the visualization name, select the column that you want to exempt from data limiting.
  2. At the bottom of the panel, click and select Item data limiting.
  3. In the expanded Item data limiting section, click next to each data limiting to remove all of them.
    Tip: You can also select one specific filtering scheme and not change any of the filters it contains.
    Note: In the installed client, you can also right-click the column that you want to exempt from data limiting and select Sparkline settings, Calculated value setitngs, Icon settings, or Bullet graph settings depending on the type of the dynamic items in this column. Select Data and under Data limiting, select Specify separate data limiting. Clear all check-boxes under Limit data using markings and Limit data using filtering, and clear the input field under Limit data using expression if applicable. Click Close.
    Now the column always shows all data, regardless of any filtering or other data limitations in the other parts of the visualization.
